A list of nursing departments was obtained from the QS World University Rankings website (www.topuniversities.com) using the “nursing school” subject and “overall score” ranking indicators to determine the study population. Universities with an overall score of 79.9 minimum to 95.3 maximum were included in the study, and the study sample comprised the nursing educator representatives of the schools whose e-mail address was available on the selected nursing schools' website.

Recruited for the study were 30 nursing educators from different universities who met the following criteria: (a) employed in the selected universities, (b) working knowledge of the English language and (c) volunteering their participation in the study. Universities that were not on the 2020 QS World Ranking list were excluded from the study.
